Waiting To Bleed

Verse1

I try to fight the darkness

I fight my demons every day

As I'm trying to make it to the light

I won't walk away

It's time to hit my knees

And pray to God

To save me

To heal me

To forgive me

 

Verse2

I feel like the World

Tries to hold me down

I'm about to get up

And fight

God please let me focus

Focus on you

And your plans for me

Keep me precious

In your sight

 

Bridge

I need to stand

But I can't stand on my own

God please pick me up

Heal me

Heart and soul

 

Chorus

Please let me stop

Waiting To Bleed

Please take the pain away

Take it out of my heart

Take it out of my soul

Please make the crazy things stop

Remove it all

From my brain

Please let me stop

Waiting To Bleed

Take the pain out of my heart

Take it out of my soul

Let me stop 

Waiting To Bleed

Please heal my heart

Let my soul breathe

Please let my soul breathe

 

Verse3

There's a million women

Who ripped my heart a part

Left me to pick up the pieces

Hardest part was moving on

Don't feel like I'll ever find

That kind of love

But I'm not going down

Without a fight

I pray to God

That you find a lady

For me

Who loves you

As much As I do

 

Repeat Bridge and Chorus

 

Verse4

God makes miracles happen

I gotta be patient

God please teach me

How to love

Like you

 

(Solo)

 

Verse5

My worst fear

Is losing God, Jesus, and Journey Rae

I love you all

With all my heart, soul,

And beyond everything I am

I mess up

I'm a sin staind man

I'm only human

But you still love me

I'll fight for all of you

Without you

I'm nothing

Without you

I'm no one

I pray you love me

As much as I love you

 

Repeat Bridge and Chorus

It's Only Time

Before we all must bleed. Loved that song! Their following albums were all crap, they abandoned their formula thinking themselves creationists instead of simply writing and orchestrating the art. Too many producers, not enough man in garage picking out a melody. Collective Soul - slc (Just ran Bleed on U-Tube - the lyrics are phenomenal! and available to read along. The orchestration is lean almost tribal, bass and drums voice and chords - love it!
